diogenesian discourse

The keyboard is mightier than the machine gun... The political, philosophical and general outpourings of a troubled soul living in Australia and blogging his Vietnam veteran's head off.

Nothing in this blog can be believed. If you think that
anything in this blog is true or factual, you'll need to verify
it from another source. Do you understand? No? Then read it again,
and repeat this process, until you understand that you cannot sue
me for anything you read here. Also, having been sucked into taking
part in the mass-murder of more than 3 million Vietnamese people
on behalf of U.S. Big Business "interests", I'm as mad as a cut snake (and broke) so it might be a bit silly to try to sue me anyway...

joining the dots...

One of my deep, deep, undercover agents*, has provided me with another clue:

Are we digesting this thing yet, boys and girls? Are we joining the dots?

Do you know what happens to the stockmarket when the economy shrivels like a spent Willie? Have you ever seen what a mouse plague or locust plague does to its environment? Well, the human plague is doing that to the whole globe. And like the mice and locusts in those plagues, we will die in humungous numbers when we've stripped the global environment bare. And now you know why we face perpetual "terrorism". We, the "privileged" will always make sure that the "underprivileged" will do the dying first, and in large numbers.

Do you really think the "underprivilaged" will take this lying down? They know they cannot confront us with military might, so for them, "terrorism" is a last stand. It's a "you might screw us, but we'll take as many as is possible with us before we go" kind of desperate, final, grand gesture thing.

We, for our part, seem to think that by getting even more brutal with them, even more oppressive, even more exploitative, that we will somehow lessen their desire to take as many of us as is possible with them before we kill them? Our kill ratio, which runs at something like ten innocent people for every "guilty bastard" is sure to generate steady stream of "terrorists".

Oh yeah, this is the answer to overpopulation alright...

Have we really become that psychopathic as a "civilisation"? Are we really going to stand by silently and be a party to this? In the name of a capitalism gone mad? In the name of our "God"? In the name of "Intelligent Design"? Nah... You know it will be in the name of "freedom" and "democracy"...

And those supporting this psychopathic shit are accomplices to the biggest crime against humanity in living memory. I am SO pissed off !!!

And never heard of Soylent Green till now, Gerry, but trust those canny Simpsons to reference it:"Bart to the Future", in which a future Ralph chastises Bart for eating Soylent Green (Now with More Girls!)

The counter shown below displays the number of Israeli military personnel refusing to serve in the Occupied Territories. I applaud their integrity and their strength of character. To me they are heroes of peace and humanity.
